about

the eight zero - first track for new album. more to follow.

lyrics

something crawls from a pile of bones
we might just pick it up or spit it out
leave us where we were lying
make a noise to let them know we survived
i'm not scared that the circus is over
for all you who are feeling sorry
will the time ever come 

when you’re ready to stand
i never knew there was so much fear
no care no space to think clearly
i would not waste a single breath
all across this world 

we have seen the damage
heads or tails



we are people so hungry
dressed in fatigue and despair
we hold on to each other
they’re turning children into killers
we can't help them
if there in a war of their own
you won't help us
if our silence stands against you
in our separate house of pain
turning sadness into violence
faces full of homeless souls
in a bedroom or a tomb
some lost place of innocence
we place the first stone
skipped from a whip



beneath the black moon

as the bells of dawn are ringing
in the mystical sky
we could feel the flame
as they drill down with liquid fire
into our heart of hearts
once again in disguise
as every day falls
every day falls



got a warning of the future
built a wall and learned how to walk alone
four weeks and five days just slipped away
something inside was hurting
my anger wouldn't let me hide
now i’m searching for love
and exactly what is needed here
in the streets of broken heart land

there comes a time

when those who are used and cheated
when innocence is quickly claimed
when dogs lose their bark
from faces full of homeless souls


the towers are burning

fire is everywhere
blood is flowing
people are dying on the land
there's no hiding place
from poison rain clouds

beneath the black moon

the bells of dawn are ringing
in the mystical sky
we could feel the flame
as they drill down with liquid fire
to our heart of hearts
once again in disguise
as every day falls
